This whole system is a lot newer than most services you've used on the Internet. It's under constant change. Expect it to look different next week, month, or year.
Agreed. The systems are being flooded from the migration. Communities are quickly being formed. A little patience and people rolling up their sleeves to make it better go a long way.
There isn't explicitly a profit motive on here (unlike almost every other big social media site).
So you can do away with the clickbait-y, karma or like farming...
We don't do that here.
Just wait until things grow. Those people will come once there is an audience to extract money from.
Filter by New so you don't see the same few posts every time to open Lemmy.
Don't forget to hit the CTRL button when clicking on any external links so they open in a new tab. Basically pretend it's 2012 again.
If you want Lemmy to be successful, contribute as much high quality content as possible so more people will be inclined to stay here. Don't lurk.
@npastaSyn Thanks to ActivityPub you can use Lemmy/Kbin and other fediverse social networks without the need of making a new account in them.
Right now I'm writing this from Mastodon.
If I were about making an account probably I'll go to lemmy.ca people over there seem extra chill.
Like adding extra Lemmy to an order of Lemmy.
Please tell me how I can follow a magazine / community in Mastodon. I tried to do it but would only see a random comment, not the OP of a post or any of the other comments. When I would click on the comment it would take me directly to Kbin or Lemmy. (Which is fine, since I'm mainly on Kbin for the message board feel and on Mastodon for the miceoblog experience.)
Are you talking about subscribing to a magazine? I do it on mobile by clicking the magazine I want, clicking the top left square button modal with the 3 lines, then scroll down until you see the magazine name to click Subscribe
